After breakfast the next day, Cheng Xue put on new clothes and sat in front of the dressing table, letting Yu Niang do her work.
She combed her hair, put on makeup, and put on the jade jewelry that had been left for a long time. Li Hui had given her this thing a long time ago, but it was a pity that he was not at home and didn't see it when she gave her the first serious order.
Yuniang stared at the person in the mirror and admired sincerely:
"Madam is so beautiful."
Cheng Xue looked at herself in the mirror and felt the same, but she still said humbly:
"No way, it's your makeup technique that's good."
"Madam always says that slaves are too self-effacing, but in fact, madam is. No matter how good the slave's skills are, it will be difficult to achieve anything if she is not good at it. Madam is so beautiful, have I ever seen you like this?" Yu Niang asked while giving her the pearl.
Hairpin.
I thought that my wife was from a farmer's family and was informal, so her aura would be a little lacking. Now it seems that she is worrying too much. Even if she doesn't wear such aggressive makeup, my wife's aura will not be weak.
I'll try a different one next time and see what the effect is.
Cheng Xue naturally didn't know what she was thinking, but the question she asked made her blush.
His throat moved slightly, he cleared his throat and answered:
"He has never seen us. Although we had three books and six etiquettes when we got married, the ceremony was simple. After all, it was to celebrate his happiness."
Upon hearing this, Yu Niang paused for a moment, then sighed softly and said:
"That's such a pity. Old people say that a woman's most beautiful moment is on her wedding day. Let me make up for you in the future."
"What are you trying to make up for? All four children ran all over the floor." Cheng Xue responded calmly.
It is estimated that she has never had the chance to wear a new wedding dress in two lifetimes. When Yu Niang stopped and got up to go to the west room to see Li Yue, Bai Shao was applying makeup on her, which was not finished yet. But some effects could already be seen, but she didn’t know the reason.
People will know that the person in the mirror comes from a peasant family.
She has been studying, practicing piano, painting, and playing chess with Lian for just half a year, and her temperament has indeed improved very quickly.
Li Tian came close to him, looked left and right, then turned to look at Cheng Xue and said:
"Mom, my sister is so beautiful."
Cheng Xue stepped forward, gently touched the top of her hair, and said:
"Tiantian is okay. Play chess and paint with Bai Zhi more. Your paintings are beautiful and you are particularly smart."
Everyone has something they are good at. In addition to being good at bloodline suppression, Li Tian is also good at painting. It is not the kind of random scribbling, but having ideas and appreciation. With time, he will definitely achieve something. p>
She firmly believes!
Children like to be praised. When Li Tian saw her mother praising her, she smiled and hugged her to act like a spoiled child. Yu Niang was very discerning and came over to help her comb her hair.
The little girl of this age wears her hair very simply, just two buns. Yu Niang tied two silk ropes and put a red dot between her eyebrows, just like a New Year painting doll.
The little girl went to the mirror, looked at the person in the mirror, and asked:
"Sister, am I beautiful?"
Li Yue gave a doting "hmm"——
"Beautiful, Tiantian is the most beautiful."
"Hehe...I think so too."
The words that were not modest at all made Li Yue and Cheng Xue laugh instantly. Ever since Li Hui took the two children away, the family has rarely laughed like this. Speaking of which, Li Heng is still the kid who is out of control, likes to play tricks, act coquettishly, and act coquettishly.<
/p>
Li Yue finished dressing up, stood up, walked to Cheng Xue, and naturally took her arm.
Looking at it this way, Li Heng is taller than Li Yue.
It's right to think about it. The child practices martial arts and climbs trees. He eats more and sleeps soundly. He will definitely grow faster than his sister. When the child comes back from his study tour, he will probably be taller than her mother. I think.
I'm really envious that she can go out and see the world at the age of seven. When she was seven... let's not mention it.
A gust of north wind blew away Cheng Xue's thoughts. The couple took Yu Niang and Bai Shao to the west of the village. Today is the day to start work here.
No matter how good the relationship is on weekdays, it is only on weekdays and can never be used for work. She understands this clearly. This is why she asked Li Yue to put on makeup and dress formally, in order to give people a deterrent effect.
The agreed time was at 6 o'clock, so the couple came here a quarter of an hour early. Unexpectedly, Yang and others had already arrived.
This is a good sign. They say everything is difficult at the beginning, but their beginning was relatively smooth.
Geng wanted to come forward to say hello, but seeing the mother and daughter acting like this, she immediately stopped thinking. When others saw their mother and daughter, they were not only shocked but also in disbelief.
After living in the same village for so many years, who doesn’t know who? But here, you really can’t associate her with Li Hui’s wife, who was bullied by the Li clan in the past.
Because it’s simply inappropriate.
Li Zhong came over, bowed his hands, and asked:
"Madam, please wait in the room for a while?"
Cheng Xue nodded "Yeah" and followed into the head cabin.
The house is not big, more than 20 square meters, with a small stove, tables, chairs and benches. Dong Bin helped build four cabinets. This room is used to do calculations and pay wages.
The name "Talk Room" is actually an office.
Yu Niang handed the cinnabar and soju she brought to her husband. Li Zhong took them and mixed them in a small bowl.
When the time came, Cheng Xue got up and came out, stood in front of the door and said:
"Everyone is here on time today, which shows that everyone is here to make money. I told you before that the daily salary is five coppers, and everyone takes turns to rest when they are not busy, but now I have a scalper."
"..."
"..."
"...?"
After Cheng Xue finished speaking, she deliberately paused. Unexpectedly, no one asked questions except for their expressions of confusion. After all, she was the one who personally picked out the person. He didn't have hair, thorns, or sticks, so he was very good.
Knowing that waiting any longer would be in vain, he chuckled and said:
"Yesterday, Li Zhong came back from the county and brought back another job - frying pine nuts. Frying pine nuts is similar to frying melon seeds, but there are a few tedious processes in the early stage, which I will teach you later.
So we can no longer take turns to rest as agreed, because the county is in urgent need and needs a lot. We can’t pay five cents for wages, eight cents per person per day, and we have etiquette during the New Year. We don’t give too much as gifts, but how much is that?
A thought.
Wages will be paid on the fifteenth day of every month, and everyone will be paid half a month. If you don’t want to do it, please inform us in advance, and the wages will be settled at that time, and all the fifteen days will be paid.
Of course, if someone cheats and fishes in troubled waters, he will not be paid for these fifteen days, and he will have to be handed over to the government. Everyone here has a good relationship with me on weekdays, so there are many disadvantages. Let's be polite first and then fight to avoid trouble in the future.
Here, I am the 'boss', and we do everything according to the rules. The rules here are very simple, don't work late, don't leave early, don't quarrel, don't be lazy, we make money by being harmonious.
If you do well this year, the scale will be expanded next year, and your wages will increase by then. I once said that if you have money, everyone will make it, and I am not just talking about it, I mean it."
After saying this, Yu Niang opened the paper she brought, and there was "Village West Rules" written in black and white on it.
He almost didn't know the words, and only Geng knew a few, but he gave them back to his master...
